Technicalities That Are Embarrassing.
Some of the really vital points In the present
problem of the tine of the high seas are over
looked Id the discussion of the more salient
foatures. One of them Is that flreat Britain and
Germany alike, tn their pursuit of the war, are
inclined to disregard certain little things, the
t hservance of which would make a much better
inder st ending between them and the neutral na
tions. These may be covered by technical inter
pretation of treatlea and raws, but their breach
In Irritating, and sometimes exasperating. Just
now, the matter of torpedoing merchantmen is
much In point. The United States ha vigorously
irotested egstast the sinking without warning
of an unarmed trader, and baa Oermany 's promise
that the practlo will be discontinued. But If
British merchantmen are mounting guns, and
thus changing their condition, they make them
sclvea fall within the classification of warship.
On British vessel Is now being held at Norfolk,
where two German converted passenger ships
are interned. The futility of the practice Is ex
hibited in the case of the Hesperian, whose
slngi gun may remove It from the protection
promised by Germany, and yet will not allay the
popular indignation against the subsea opera
tions that jeopardise non-combatant lives.
This keeping of pledges to the letter and not
to the spirit will hardly aerve to Improve the
feeling on either aide. It I the absolute Indiffer
ence to rights of neutsals that la most prominent
at present. It may be excusable to the belliger
ents, who are so eagerly seeking for advantage,
but this does not mak th situation any easier
to bear.

How Far ii Ha Eight t
Dr. Dumba, Austrian ambasaador at Wb
ngton. has Injected a new Issue Into th war
situation in America, by assumln. the riant to
instruct th subject of Austria, employed In this
country, to cease work In mills where munitions
of war ar manufactured. This Is novel In Itself,
and may be founded well In law, but It will
doubtless be seriously debated before final Judg
ment is given. No question will be raised as to
the propriety of Dr. Dumba's giving advice to bli
countrymen, so far as he does not by so doing
ir.terrere with the political affairs of th United
State. Whether ills privilege lu this matter In
cludes th actual interference with Industrial
affair may b discussed. Th subject of the
dual monarchy sojourning In th United States Is
temporarily domiciled here, and In his ordinary
life and busine is amenable to the customs
and laws of tbe country. II still carries with
him a claim on the protection of the Austrian
r.overament, which goes so far aa to see that Its
nib Vets are accorded equal treatment with th
cltlxens of any other country. In th present
Instance it is not alleged that these rights are
abridged by th home government, but the attl
tttde of Dr. Dumba is that he may curtail th
right of freedom of contract to th subjects of
bis emperor living here.
This phase of the campaign will occasion
much eeiioua consideration, for If th right b
conceded to Austria, It will hav to go to others
similarly situated, and If th order to stop work
at certain mills is to be respected, orders to do
other thinns may be equally enforced.- How fsr
is Dr. -inba right?
Admirers of aggressive enterprise ad re
sourceful energy will echo th Joy Ban Francisco
feels In wiping out the mortgage debt on the
Panama-Pacific expoaiUon. The obatacles sur
mounted In its creation and the travel blight of

th progressive spirit of tbe Oolden Get. The
exposition well deserves not only th patronage
it has received, but the brilliant promt of a
ucceesful finish.
Vatican diplomacy is esteemed the smoot&tHU
product of the profession. In seeking and feellpg
tbe world's pulse In the Interest of peace, great
caution, prudence and patience must be ob
served in thst quarter. With the follower of
tbe church fighting on all side of the conflict,
snd Italy at war with another Catholic power,
the highest art of the profession must needs be
(verrlsed to avoid giving offense at horn or
broad.

Mow Read Hall had seata for more than ,) and
scripture leta, In white letters on a red background,
covered the walla. A chorus choir of eeventy-flve to
one hundred young men snd women occupied a p"t
of the platform.
' Promptly al o'clock Mr Moody a'epa out and
plants both hands on the rail that rune along the
front of the platform and forma hla pulpit ." Here
It la nold that Mr. Moody has grown atout alnce
leaving America and weara a flowing ueard. "But
there ia no mistaking the man as soon aa he opens

people whoee fm-ea are heootnlng familiar. Then
cornea an explcalnn that would do credit to Plllv Hun

Near Mr. Moody alta Mr. ,nkey. the alnger. at a

Moody calls on Mr. Sankey for a hymn, "Jeaua of

"The hymn tells." A prayer by Mr. Moody, "brief,
eiaculatory and fervent." followa. Then Mr. Hanker
alnga again. Thia time "Thar Were Ninety snd

that the cottonwood Is s tree not worthy a place on

destruction of all auch tree. At that time I wrote a

agitating a cruslde against tha cottonwood. I muat
enter yroteet anew. 1 cannot bellev that the advice
of the educated agriculturists wilt be heeded by the
people of our state. Nebraakans ar not ungrateful,
but indeed they would be t tiara tee If they should ris

nature even sent to brlghtea and to bleea the pioneers
upon the prairies. The cottonwood gar a flr-t reward

New York World. By the successful

Oerman sovernment to the American
definition of neutral rights, the I'nlted
Htatea has gained a new preaUpe amoiiK
the nations. It is a prestige that coul I
not have been won by rushing blindly
into war, no matter what our shlpa and
our armies might have done in battle.
This Is a moral triumph which in tha
circumstances eurpaases in its permanent
value to mankind anything that mla;ht
have been achieved by foree.
(It. Ixiuis Globe-Democrat: That this Is
a vltory, a great victory, for the I'nlted
States, for the American people, and for
Prealdent Wilson, cannot be disputed.
We could very easily have been drawn
into a war over this matter. All the ele
ments of a conflagration wer present
and it needed but the touching of a
match to set the country aflame. That
the match was not struck is largely due
to the calm, deliberate course of the
president. Flrmlv, courageously, and
skillfully he upheld the cause of the gov
ernment, and the cause of humanity, and
he won, as lie deserved to win. For right
was on tits aide.
